I applaud the U.S. EEOC for issuing a final rule that recognizes the broad scope of the Pregnant Worker’s Fairness Act, including that abortion is a covered condition under the bill. These final rules significantly advance women's health, economic security, and equality.

Very scary, and this could have been worse. Safety at DCA must be our top priority, this near miss shows our warnings about the risks of an over-packed runway must be taken seriously. It would be irresponsible and dangerous to put more traffic on that runway.

Leader Jeffries following Rule vote in the House

“House Democrats have once again, cleared the way.”

.House Democrats will always step up.

For democracy.
For freedom.
For our allies.
For civilians in need.

When history calls, we answer.

It is vital that Congress act to send assistance to support Ukraine and fend off Russian aggression.

We may be in the minority, but we are not going to let that urgent mission fail. Democrats are doing what it takes to make sure Ukraine gets help.

We may be in the minority in the House right now, but Hakeem Jeffries is essentially functioning as the real Speaker already. Rs couldn’t get their own bills out of the committee they control so Ds had to help them. Work horses not just show horses.

How Dems are viewing the foreign aid vote, from Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar:

“Well, it shows that Johnson needs Democrats to deliver this. He needed us to avoid the economic cliff. He needed us to fund government and he needs us to get this over the finish line.“

My friend Rep. Jim McGovern put it very well: 'It is unbelievable to me that it has taken this long for this Republican majority to do their job. The incompetence and the indifference is stunning... The Ukrainian people have suffered as a result of this GOP majority.'

Watch here:

Let's call the Mayorkas impeachment by what it is: a political stunt.

If Republicans actually wanted to do something about the border, they had the chance with our bipartisan bill.

Instead, they walked away because Donald Trump told them to.

.Chuck Schumer (D-NY): 'What we saw today was a microcosm of this impeachment since day one: hollow, frivolous, political. And we felt very strongly that we had to set a precedent that impeachment should never be used to settle policy disagreements.'

Yesterday I presented the Crime Survivors and Justice Caucus’ Allied Professional Award to Arlington's Candice Lopez for her work to prevent violence and support survivors!

Thank you @repjimcosta @repdesposito for recognizing those making a difference in our communities.

For seniors and people with disabilities, I'm going to expand Medicaid home care services to reduce the 700,000-person backlog.

More folks will be able to live and work in their own communities with dignity.

And more home care workers will get the pay and benefits they deserve.

Flashback to January 2021: 45 Senate Republicans vote to dismiss Trump’s Jan. 6 impeachment without a trial. That trial only occurred because they lacked the majority vote needed to block it. nbcnews.com/politics/congr…

Remembering the 32 people we lost 17 years ago today in the awful mass shooting at Virginia Tech. It is a hurt we can never repair, and a loss we can never replace. Today and everyday I remain committed to preventing gun violence, and stopping these tragedies from happening.

'The US is on track to grow at double the rate of any other G7 country this year, according to IMF forecasts, as the strength of the world’s biggest economy rocks global markets.'

Speaker Johnson could pass assistance for Ukraine today if he chose to. He should.

For months he has failed to support our ally, which emboldens Russia and its autocratic allies including Iran and China.

Our Ukrainian friends urgently need help – we should get it to them ASAP.

Americans experienced the world-class customer service they deserve 👏🥳

Happy #TaxDay ! 🎉 This year, the IRS is leveling the playing field by collecting millions more in unpaid taxes from the wealthy, thanks to Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act. Fairness in taxation benefits us all.

I'm thankful to American servicemembers and our allies who successfully intercepted the Iranian attack on Israel. The next step should be to deescalate. Those seeking renewed bloodshed and war are wrong, the President is right to oppose actions that risk larger regional conflict.
